REVELATION OF JOHN
Chapter 22
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:1 | And he showed me a nahar of water of Chayyim (Life) bright as crystal, going forth out of the kisseh of G-d Hashem and of the Seh (Lamb, Yeshayah 53:7), [Tehillim 36:8; 46:4; Yechezkel 47:1; Zecharyah 14:8] | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:2 | In the middle of the rehkov (street) of it, and on either side on the nahar was the Aitz HaChayyim, producing Sheneym Asar Perot, according to each chodesh, yielding the p'ri of it, and the leaves of the Aitz (tree) are for the refu'ah of the Nations [Yechezkel 47:12] | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:3 | And there shall no longer be any kelalah, and the kisseh of Hashem and of the Seh (Lamb, Yeshayah 53:7) shall be in it, and his avadim shall serve him. [Zecharyah 14:11] | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:4 | And they will see his face, and ha-Shem of him will be on the mitzakhim (foreheads) of them. | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:5 | And there shall no longer be Lailah, and they have no need of the ohr (light) of a menorah and the ohr (light) of the shemesh (sun), because Hashem Adonoi will give forth ohr (light) on them, and they will reign l'Olemei Olamim. [Yeshayah 60:19; Daniel 7:27] ANI MA'AMIN BE'EMUNAH SHLEIMAH B'BIAS HAMOSHIACH | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:6 | And he said to me, "These dvarim are ne'emanim and amittiyim, and Hashem Elohei ruchot hanevi'im sent his malach to show to his avadim (slaves) things which are imminent. | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:7 | And --hinei!--I am coming quickly. Ashrey is the one who is shomer, keeping the dvarim hanevu'ah of this sefer. | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:8 | And I, Yochanan, am the one hearing and seeing these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell to worship before the feet of the malach showing me these things. | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:9 | And he says to me, "See that you do not do it; a fellow eved of yours I am, and of your Achim, the nevi'im (prophets), and of the ones who are shomer, keeping the dvarim of this sefer; | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:10 | Worship Hashem!" And he says to me, "Do not seal up the dvarim hanevu'ah (prophecy) of this sefer, for the time at hand. [Daniel 8:26] | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:11 | Let the one being unrighteous, let him be unrighteous noch (still); and let the one who is filthy be filthy noch, and let the tzaddik be a tzaddik noch, [Daniel 9:25] and let the kadosh be yitkadesh noch. [Yechezkel 3:27; Daniel 12:10] | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:12 | Hinei!--I am coming quickly, and my sachar (reward) is with me, to give to each one according to his ma'aseh. [Yeshayah 40:10; 62:11] | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:13 | I am the Alef and the Tav, HaRishon (The First) and HaAcharon (The Last), HaReshit (The Beginning) and HaTachlit (The Ultimate). | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:14 | Ashrey are the ones washing their kaftans, that they may have the right to the Aitz (tree) of Chayyim (Life) and they may enter by the shi'arim into the city. | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:15 | Outside are the kelevim (dogs) and the mekhashfim and the zonim and the rotzkhim and the ovdei haelilim and everyone loving and practicing sheker. [Devarim 23:18] | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:16 | I, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua sent my malach to give solemn edut (testimony) to you of these things, for the Kehillot. I am the shoresh and the offspring of Dovid, the Kokhav HaShachar. | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:17 | And the Ruach Hakodesh and the Kallah say, "Bo!" And the one hearing let him say, "Bo!" And the one thirsting, let him come, the one desiring let him take the mayim haChayyim freely. | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:18 | I give solemn edut to everyone hearing the divrei haNevu'ah of this sefer: if anyone adds to them Hashem will add to him the makkot (plagues) which are written in this sefer; [Devarim 4:2; 12:32; Mishle 30:6] | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:19 | and if anyone takes away from the dvarim of the sefer of this nevu'ah (prophecy), Hashem will take away his share of the Aitz HaChayyim and from the Ir HaKodesh of the things having been described in this sefer. [Devarim 4:2; 12:32; Mishle 30:6] | |
Reve | OrthJBC | 22:20 | He who gives solemn edut to these things says, "Ken! I am coming bahlt (soon)!" Omein. Come Adoneinu Yehoshua! | |
